2018 Mackinnon Stakes form guide and tips

James Cummings is trying to figure this runner out this season but he’s not running in the best form.

The seven-year-old has seemingly lost a couple of lengths this season and he hasn’t been able to run down the likes of Moss ‘N’ Dale and Cliff’s Edge lately. That form isn’t going to be good enough for this and carrying 59kg maked it even harder.

Another international type which has plenty of upside and every chance of winning this. The Aidan O’Brien-trained three-year-old has been around some of the best age-group types in the UK and the form stacks up well.

He’s an Irish Derby winner which might want more distance but that form looks good for this race and he’s going to get every chance from barrier three.

Hugh Bowman has been suspended so Mark Zahra rides but that’s a small negative.
